Ingredients

For Dough

2.5 Cup wheat flour
1/2 Tsp roasted cumin seeds powder
1/2 tsp salt
Warm water

For Stuffing

200 Gram paneer/cottage cheese grated
1 Medium sized onion chopped finely
2 Green chili chopped finely
1/2 Tsp cumin seeds
2 Tbsp coriander leaves chopped finely
1/2 Tsp garam masala
1/2 Tsp red chili powder (powder)
1 Tsp grated ginger
Salt as per taste
Oil to fry parathas

Instructions

First of all, make a soft dough using warm water. Keep it aside by covering it. This process makes the dough very soft by the time stuffing is ready.
In another mixing bowl grate the paneer or cottage cheese. Add all the listed ingredients for the filling and mix well. Adjust salt and chili as per your taste. This is ready to fill.
Heat the griddle on medium flame.
Divide dough and stuffing into equal parts. With this quantity, I made 10 parathas.
Roll out a circle of about 3″ in diameter. Place 3-4 tbsp stuffing and gently close it. Roll this around 6-8″ diameter circle.
Place it on the griddle. After a few seconds flip it to another side.
Apply oil and cook from both sides until golden brown. Repeat the same process with the rest of the dough balls.
Paneer paratha or stuffed cottage cheese flatbread is ready to serve hot with curd, pickle or any chutney/dip.

Notes

Just adjust salt and chilies as per your taste. This paratha/flatbread I find very easy to make.
